The Divine Doctor: The Daughter Of The Frist Wife
778.
After sending him off, everyone returned to the main hall of the Peony courtyard. After the matriarch sat down, she waved to the servants before they could give her a cloth to dry herself. Looking at everyone, he said. "You all saw what happened today. Qian Zhou rebelled, and Kang Yi would definitely be sentenced to death. Maybe we can hear the news of his death tomorrow. Although our Feng manor has been forgiven, this forgiveness is not a golden ticket. We can't choose not to do anything. We must reveal our stand."
An shi thought quickly and immediately understood what the matriarch meant, "Propos has come from the husband's side, and the old madam has spoken to Mr. Xu about the annulment of the marriage. Here is the head of the new wife of the Feng family."
After this was said, there was not much reaction from the hall. After all, Han shi was absent. An shi didn't want the position of the wife's head, and Jin Zhen knew that his background wouldn't allow him to step forward. As for Cheng shi's sister, they also had an understanding. Right now, the matriarch definitely hoped to promote one of them to the position.
They were very clear about the outcome, but they were still patiently waiting for the matriarch to continue. "This old man has decided that from today, Cheng Jun Man's secondary wife will be promoted to Jin Yuan's official wife and have control over the communal funds." After the last two words were spoken, he felt depressed for a long time, but he still continued calmly. "As soon as the sun rises tomorrow, we will send someone to the government to deal with this matter. Jun Man, from today on, you will be the wife of the head of the Feng family."
Cheng Jun Man was not being humble or haughty, as he gracefully saluted the matriarch. "This concubine thanked mother for her great grace." She now began calling the matriarch 'mother'. (in the past only legal wives could call in-laws mother.)
This was not the end, as the matriarch turned her gaze to Cheng Jun Mei. Surprisingly, he added. "Also promoted ... Cheng Jun Mei became the wife of an additional official. You'll help arrange the manor."
Cheng Jun Mei didn't seem to be too excited. Impersonating her sister, she stood up then knelt in front of the matriarch. "Thank you, mother, for the great grace."
An shi looked at the two who were kneeling in the middle of the hall. In his mind, he sighed. One was the chief's wife, and the other was the maid's official wife. Based on their background, suppressing the rowdy concubines and the young miss from the Feng family would not be a problem. If the two could remain by Feng Yu Heng's side, the Feng family might be able to remain peaceful for a while.
But Feng Chen Yu was unwilling to accept this, as she reminded the matriarch. "When Yao shi got involved, the Feng family acted too hastily. What outcome? After three years, they made a comeback. Not only did Yao shi receive the title as a first rank noblewoman, she was also able to receive an imperial decree from the Emperor for a divorce. That Feng Yu Heng had a brighter future. Grandma, why not think about it a little more. What if one day mother...no, Kang Yi, what if there was "Is the day that Kang Yi can also return? What do we do?"
The leader's mother loudly shouted. "Close your mouth! How could there be any similarity between that guilty woman and Yao shi?"
The Cheng shi brothers were already standing up, and Cheng Jun Mei comforted the matriarch. However, Cheng Jun Man turned around and said to Feng Chen Yu with a grim expression. "Chen Yu, remember that trying to kill the Emperor is a grave crime. Kang Yi was a member of the Qian Zhou imperial family. Half of the people who tried this murder were his relatives Not to mention the inevitable war between Da Shun and Qian Zhou, even if there was no war, he would not be able to live."
Chen Yu took a sharp breath. Cheng Jun Man was not the same as before. Previously, even though she was very disciplined, she still remembered her standing and called out to her eldest young miss. Now, he immediately called out his name. But she had to call him mother.
All the masters of the Feng family were gathered in the main hall of the Peony courtyard. Even Fen Dai, who sent Han shi to rest, returned. Although everyone was gathered together, the atmosphere froze. No one wants to go back and sleep, but no one knows what to say. Like this, they just stayed together. This feels a little gloomy.
At this moment, deep in the Winter Moon Palace, Xuan Tian Ming was pinching Feng Yu Heng's small cheek. With a criminal tone, he said to her. "My wife, baby, let's go. Husband will take you to play."
The building of ancient buildings was built with its main gate facing South. The imperial palace naturally followed this rule as well, but there was a huge mountain in the North. The entire back of the imperial palace was part of this mountain.
But very few people knew that the center of this mountain had also been hollowed out like Xu Tian Cave. However, it was not built as a fortress. It was turned into a prison.
This prison had a depth of ten li. The mountain was made of stone, and its cell was carved into stone. There are a total of 200 cells without windows. The pillars in each cell are covered in spikes, and each cell has a puddle of cold water. There was a sound of despair, and it was like hell.
This is where prisoners sentenced to death are held. Depending on the severity of their crime, the prisoners will be placed closer to the entrance or further away. The whole prison is complex. Not to mention escaping, even moving from one cell to the next without anyone guiding the way, one could get lost.
Currently, the four of Qian Zhou were locked up here. Each one was given a small cell, and they all co-existed. However, there were iron shackles around their arms and legs. Even if they wanted to get together, they couldn't manage it no matter what.
A foul smell existed where, it spread into thin air. Slowly, it began to quietly seep into their flesh.
Feng Kun leaned against the stone wall and sat on the ground. Dark water soaked his shoes and socks, and moisture entered his body. This caused his leg to hurt a little.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew and hit the thick stone wall with a rumble. It shook the entire mountain.
Qian Zhou's imperial relative, Feng De, still had a bloody wound on his arm, and blood flowed profusely from this wound, but no one came to stop the bleeding. With a wound like this in this kind of environment, it would slowly swell up, become infected, and he could imagine the wound would start to rot. Eventually, it would spread all over his arms until he himself rotted to death.
